Zoé, one of the company's elite stars, is threatened with losing her job, while newcomer Flora struggles to earn her place.

Zoé enlists powerful allies and begins a hardcore training routine to mount her comeback. Meanwhile, Flora is stuck giving a tour to young ballerinas.

When Zoé's firing is made public, the other dancers call for a general strike in support. Will the Opera have to cancel the premiere of the new show? The deciding vote will be taken at a general meeting of the entire Opera staff.

Sébastien offers the strenuous lead role of Swan Lake to Zoé, thinking she'll refuse. But she accepts and has just 48 hours to get ready.

Amongst the visiting Russian Bolshoi ballet company is Zoé's former lover and dancing partner, Sasha. After five years, the pair face unresolved emotions.

After a wild, impromptu party, Zoé falls into Sasha's arms, but will she be swayed by his promises all over again? Meanwhile, Flora chooses an unlikely mentor.

Zoé falls back into her hard-partying habits, only keeping herself in check to coach Flora. Unable to keep up, Flora crosses a dangerous line.

Flora earns a spot in the company but pays the price for her rigorous training. Sébastien fears for his job, and Zoé hopes for a grand comeback.
